"There will be much talk concerning the power of*Xbox One*and*PS4*leading to the launches of these new home console this holiday season.*Sony*and*Microsoft*have demonstrated impressive looking exclusive software with titles like “Dead Rising 3” and “Killzone Shadow Fall” to get gamers excited about the new consoles. On June 17, new*information concerning the difference in power*between PS4 and Xbox One was reported and it states gamers will be able to notice a visual difference between the two consoles on launch day.According to a report by*GamesThirst, an anonymous developer has stated that the difference between PS4 and Xbox One will be noticeable to people on launch day. The developer further goes on to say that the PS4 is “40% more powerful than Xbox One” and that games like “Call of Duty: Ghosts” will be “noticeably different” upon release.These comments align with Jack Tretton’s comments of the PS4 housing the best looking software. We reported last week that Tretton believes the PS4 is the most power console --*full story here.In addition to praising the PS4’s power, Tretton also encouraged people to ask third-party developers which platform is best. Moreover, he wants people to compare multiplatform games side-by-side because he is certain the PS4 will have the best visuals."

Interesting that they used Call of Duty as an example. I wonder if that means the anonymous dev is associated with Infinity Ward. Also, Call of Duty has been one of the most Xbox-wh0red games this gen as we all know, with the PS3 getting the inferior, slapped together ports. So, it'll be crazy if right out the gate the PS4 gets such a compliment.

@chrisw26308,

If a multiplatform game is running at 60fps on Xbone, you can bet it'll be running at 60fps on PS4. Yes, there are some PS4 games announced that are to run at 30fps, this was a choice by the devs to push the graphics that much further, it's not saying that they had to go 30fps out of necessity. 60fps is more important for really fast paced twitch shooters like Call of Duty, but there are tons of games where a solid, locked 30fps should be fine and look and play very well.

the difference is going to be very minimal, i dont believe anyone saying ps4 versions will look 'noticeably better' than xbox or vice versa. so far in the exclusives shown for each console, the xbox seems to be pushing more games at 60 fps. for eg., forza 5 is doing 60 fps whereas drive club is stuck at 30 fps i believe.

You can believe what you want. But people that know what there talking about say otherwise.

selectively quoting a developer which suits your agenda doesnt give the real picture. i could quote a couple of developers saying xbox one pushing more on screen because of its cloud capabilities. the reality is that ultimately you'll be hard pressed to make out any noticeable difference in graphics in multiplatform games. the consoles are too close power wise. if you're buying into the ps4 being "50% more powerful" hype and expecting games to show such a difference, you'll end up disappointed.

Forza 5 is using canned lighting, and isn't an "open world" type racer that DC appears to be. That being said, Forza 5 still looks pretty darn good. And the other 60fps game was Killer Instinct. Fighting games are very simplistic compared other game types, so you bet your ass it better be running at 60fps. What we should take from all of these comparisons, is that NONE of these games that DF or Eurogamer have compared are FINISHED, nor are they comparing the SAME GAME on one machine to the other.

Laughed at the example of Cod ghosts. That game looks like crap, how could it look like anything but garbage on either machine?

Maybe my criticism is misplaced and they will make it look "amazing" in time for launch- but that title looks nothing at all like Killzone Shadowfall, Ryse, or BF4. Looks like a 360 game with slightly upped textures and lighting.
